ST1100 Honda, 1996

1996 Honda ST1100 Sport-Touring Motorcycle

Great looking bike that starts and runs well. This one is nearly all stock, is in very good condition, and has the best factory color offered on this model (in my opinion). Always stored indoors. 66K miles, but mileage may increase slightly.

It is as near to perfect condition as you can find. Really a beautiful bike. It has one tiny crack in one small piece of plastic, otherwise it is practically flawless. Underneath, the bike it rust free-- the rear swing arm, exhaust and frame look perfect, with no real rust or corrosion. This is a great touring motorcycle with enough sporting capability to make it fun to ride. It is fast & comfortable for rider & passenger. 1100cc liquid cooled four-stroke, 90-degree V-four engine with shaft drive. The engine is smooth as glass, with LOTS of power. At 60 MPH the engine is only turning 2800 RPM!

Removable, lockable hard saddlebags.

Fold out handle to lift onto Center stand,

Large under seat lockable storage, with tool kit and manual.

Two storage compartments in the fairing, one locking.

Fold out Tie Points on each side of the seat for strapping down cargo over the back of the seat

Motorcycle Reviews Writes this about the ST1100:

For anyone looking for a long-distance tool the Honda ST1100 Pan European is probably one of the safest bets around. The only problem is availability – owners rate them so highly that low-mileage machines are rarer than hen’s teeth. Not that mileage matters as the motor and construction quality is thermospherically high. The Honda ST1100 Pan European's DOHC V4 motor is so smooth and its delivery so linear that it redefines notions of ease. Reliability and durability is second-to-none. The five-speed gearbox never finds anything but drive and in top 90mph is met with just 4500rpm on the clock. You can hit 130mph, but that’s not really the point. Honda ST1100 Pan European motors will cheerfully toss off 250,000 miles, the suspension lasts well and the build quality is terrifically strong.

This bike is ready to ride! It is in great shape. It starts and runs well -- it's a Honda! Overall the paint is in near perfect condition and shines with no fading. Check out the photos -- they tell the story. I don't believe you will be disappointed. I will consider negotiating a price without the Corbin seat if you do not want it.
